Kaiwhaiki hui

Another great Tahuri Whenua hui-a-rohe, hosted at Kaiwhaiki, ten minutes drive out of Whanganui on the south bank of the river.

I took my first born, Whitiaua, on our first roadie (Bruno and I went on a field trip to Waiheke several months ago).


Uncle Ake thanking the tangata whenua for their hospitality. Alby Marsh of Plant and Food is digesting.

Sigfried Bauer and Whiti. Sigfried, a retired (he says 'cured') ultramarathoner was laying into sports journos. He's holding a two crowns of some exotic root crop that Richard Hunter had gifted him. Sigfried ran the length of Aotearoa in 18 days, 5 hours.
